Baby steps or Big steps....

I walked out of Chick fil A on Friday night for the last time....
Baby step or BIG step...
whatever you want to call it...
I took it!!!


I'm walking into a life of full-time ministry...
Baby step or BIG step...
whatever you want to call it...
I'm taking it!


I'm going back to school in the fall (GASP!)....
Baby step or BIG step...
whatever you want to call it...
I'm going to take it!


I'm allowing the Lord to direct my every step...
Baby steps or BIG steps...
whatever you want to call them...
He's taking them with me...


One step at a time and I'm so glad He is!!

Everything's gonna be alright, Rockabye, Rockabye

I'm sure you are all trying to remember the other words to this song that was played all over the radio in the late 90's early 2000's. (It's called Lullaby by Shawn Mullins...just so you don't over exhilarate yourself trying to remember what it is.) As I was listening to this song earlier tonight...the chorus just kept playing over and over in my head. This has been a long hard week for my family and I, as my Grandpa went home to be with Jesus on Wednesday, I have been sick and other big changes coming in my near future. As I listened to the chorus, "Everything's gonna be alright, Rockabye, Rockabye" it was almost as if my Savior was singing it over me. He sees the tears, hears the cry's, and feels the pain that we are all going through, but He is singing over us, reminding us that He is STILL right there, He is never going to leave us, He will sing over us and remind us that as long as we continue to lean on Him that "Everything's gonna be alright!" He wants to rock us to sleep just like a new father does his son, He wants to hold us close during the hard times and sing over us. He loves us just the way we are! And Everything is truly gonna be alright!
